Re: The Playoff Tickets Thread

I suppose they could put 5 games on Saturday and only 3 on Easter Sunday , or maybe even throw another game on Monday and maybe only play 2 on Sunday - that is within the realm of possibility. But really they would only do that if TV asked for it (which they won't) or if the arenas won't be available which they will be.

So to answer your question no, there will be a full slate of games on Easter Sunday

I do know though they will not start any games before noon Sunday in the local market.

Re: The Playoff Tickets Thread

When does the playoff schedule typically get released? Once the seeds are set in stone?

Wednesday night as the games end. Although teams often find out when the first two games are. For example the Bulls might very well know right now that they open on Saturday and then play Monday night. (They can set that up even before they know who their opponent is

Re: The Playoff Tickets Thread

Game 3, section 2 row 33. Get ready for the Bulls invasion because as pointed out tickets may be limited to Indiana residents first, but how many northern Indiana Bulls fans are getting in on the INDIANA pre-sale??

Edit....Last playoff series attended was of course the Nets and the great AJohnson coach or culture debate.

You know how hippos are made out to be sweet and silly, like big cows, but are actually extremely dangerous and can kill you with stunning brutality? The Pacers are the NBA's hippos....Matt Moore CBS Sports....

Re: The Playoff Tickets Thread

Looking at my schedule, I can almost guarantee Game 4 will be Saturday 23rd, as it is the ONLY day on which I have a previous commitment.

Tough for you, good for me. I 100% can't do game 4, there is just no chance. But if Game 3 were to drag to SAT I'm totally F-bombed since I decided to "go for it" if you will, meaning go big or go home.

I blame the Pacers. You can't train me to think that I'll be free for half of April and all of May and then take that away from me at the last second.

I am betting you'll be safe that game #3 will not be Saturday. I expect the Bulls vs pacers to be on the earlier track.

Let's just say I put down a healthy wager on that bet too.

But given your history of bets I don't know if I should be betting with you.

One good thing is that it seems like Stern and the NBA finally realized that trying to avoid any overlaps was just stupid. Half of what makes the NCAA tourney so great is that there is action going on all over the place at the same time, and frankly ditto on NFL Sundays.

Re: The Playoff Tickets Thread

I've been accused (not wrongly) of being someone of a pessimist and a wet blanket, but seriously just thinking about getting to watch the Pacers in the playoffs has me way more excited than I thought I would be.

I'm really just so ecstatic that we will likely be watching Pacers basketball at least for 2 weeks longer than we usually do, maybe til the end of April. The long offseason will at least be a little shorter this year!

Re: The Playoff Tickets Thread

$58 per ticket in section 2 of the fan zone? Does that sound right? They were $38 per ticket on the mini-season chart. Only $22 on the playoff ticket pricing card that came in renewal package, i figured that price was only for full season holders though.
